-
Unique CURVE-FITTING Analysis algorithm (Merit of Fit)
-
Full regeneration in typically < 6 minutes
-
Smooth bubble-free circulation at all times
-
Accurate measurement even when the proportion of test solution to surface area under test are huge
-
Automatic temperature compensation
-
Measures in accordance with all international and MIL specifications old and new
-
New range of PCB/Component handling frames, with integrated draining system.
The CM Series comprises: CM11+, CM22+, CM33+, CM33L+, CM60 and CMBBT.

Alongside Gen3, their Principle, MEK, will be exhibiting the SpectorBOX. Optimised for the inspection of wave and selective soldering of THT & SMT components, SpectorBOX is designed to inspect PCBs inside solder frames directly from the conveyor system. With its totally new mechanical platform, it is the only modular AOI in the market that can be equipped with nine cameras, including an optional Z-axis moveable head to precisely position and focus for varying PCB distance and warpage. The XY drive gantry with ball screw mechanics delivers high-speed inspection while maintaining high accuracy and precision. Specially coated shafts deliver quiet operation and minimize wear to virtually eliminate maintenance and calibration requirements. With its general purpose I/O, SpectorBOX can be simply interfaced with existing or new conveyor systems.
